The different functions and uses of the oven
The various functions included in the cooker are selected by operating the control devices located on the cooker control panel.
Attention: before using the oven and grill for the first time, turn the oven on for approximately one half hour. Make sure that the oven is empty, the thermostat on high, the door open, and the room properly ventilated. The odor which can be detected at times is due to the evaporation off the substances used to protect the oven and the grill during the period between the time of production and installation of the appliance.

Attention: Only use the bottom shelf of the oven when using the rotisserie to cook (where present). For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel. Always place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on the grate provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.
The oven knobs
With these two controls you can select the different functions of the oven and choose the cooking temperatu- re suitable for the food you are preparing. The different cooking functions are set up by operating the two knobs:

1. Static oven
-Knob “G” setting: 
-Knob “N” setting: anywhere between 50°C and Max
The oven light turns on and the top and bottom heating elements (resistors) switch on. The temperature, fixed by the thermostat knob, is reached automatically and kept constant by the thermostat control. This function permits cooking and type of food thanks to excellent temperature distribution.
2.The bottom heating element
- Knob “G” setting: 
- Knob “N” setting: anywhere between 50°C and Max
The oven light turns on and so does the bottom heating element. The temperature, fixed by the thermostat knob, is reached automatically and kept constant. This setting is recommended for finishing the cooking of foods (placed in pans) that are well done on the outside but still not done inside or for desserts covered with fruit or jam which require a light browning on top. Note that this function does not permit reaching the maximum (250°C) temperature inside for cooking foods always on this oven setting unless the foods are cakes which only require temperatures below or equal to 180°C.

The oven light turns on and so does the double heating element of the grill and the motor starts turning the spit. This grill is larger than the average and has a completely new design: cooking performance is increased 50%. The double grill makes sure that even the corners are touched by heat.

Signals when the oven is heating. It switches off when the temperature inside the oven reached the temperature selected by the knob. At this point the alternate turning on and turning off of this light indicates that the thermostat is operating correctly to keep the oven temperature constant.
Attention
Avoid the children touch the oven door because it is very hot during the cooking.
The cook-top electric plate control knobs (I)
The cookers may be equipped with standard, fast and automatic electric plates in various combinations (the fast plates distinguished from the others by a red dot in the centre, the automatic ones by a round aluminium disk at the centre.
To avoid heat dispersion and damage to the plates, recommend using cooking vessels with flat bottoms in diameters which are not smaller than the plate diameter. Table shows the correspondence between the position indicated on the knobs and the use for which the plates advised.
